Bloke ordered to take down ‘risqué’ Halloween decorations
A Utah man's raunchy Halloween display has been slammed by his neighbours who demanded he take the decorations down.
Christopher Fujishin, a US Air Force veteran and father, erected a spooky scene on the street outside his home in Grantsville City, Utah.
However, people weren't impressed by Christopher's attempt to get in the Halloween spirit, calling his display 'risqué' and 'not acceptable.'
One person responded to a picture of the scene posted online by saying: “I guess teaching our children respect, decency and manners has gone by the side.”

And, after one neighbour repeatedly tried to remove the decorations, the city posted to Facebook, ordering whoever was responsible to remove them immediately.
The post read: "You have until 9pm tonight (October 18) to take down your decorations or they will be removed by the city and you will have to pick up your items from our Public Works building."
It continued: "Displays like this are not acceptable as it is against city code to attach anything to a street sign."
The display in question? A skeleton wearing a bright purple wig seemingly pole dancing around the pole of the street sign while two others sat in lawn chairs holding up cash.
“It may be a little risqué for some people, but it’s all in the name of fun," Christopher said.
He responded by promptly removing the skeleton from the street sign as requested.
However, that was certainly not the end of his raunchy Halloween fun.
Instead of removing the display completely, Christopher simply moved it onto his property so he was no longer breaking any rules.
He even made his sexy skeleton scene bigger and brighter than ever, adding lights, music, some new skeleton pals and a tip bucket.
“We look forward to keeping this going, and getting it a little more elaborate as we go,” he said.
While a few of Christopher's neighbours and the city of Grantsville were a bit of a buzzkill, others have revelled in his hilarious display.
When interviewed by NBC, one Grantsville resident said: “It brings a lot of good humour that we need to a small town.”
On top of this, social media was buzzing with love for the skeletal scene.
One person wrote: “This really made me giggle out loud."
Another said: "Whoever did this, I love it!"
And a third pointed out: “If kids understand what [the display] is then maybe the problem is something else.”
